No wonder it wasn't picked up, it's not very good while the old series was excellent and it should have had a second series. It's also terribly politically correct here, with a female professor, I suppose the idea is that two male time travelers traveling together is ahem 'suspicious'.
perhaps it would have been a greater succsess if they had not changed the look of the time tunnel itself, cause it was the star in that old show. Modify yes but not that much like in that new show, and the actors are to "tough" and act in a "cold" way.The actors in the old show had more character !
that guy with the glasses sheeesh he blew the fuckin pilot by being alive if hed been shot in the head as soon as he started takking it mightve got piked up
Don't know about this variation on the original, but I WILL say that the people involved in this JUST HAD to ALSO be involved in the British sci-fi series "Primevil." They're just too similar.
SO MANY REMAKES that didn't get sold...WHY!?!?!>..how else is anyone ever going to work up the interest to even watch the originals if they have no UPDATED MATERIAL to go by!?!?!?
@StuartTheGamerNerd My question is WHY SO MANY REMAKES? Why do the shows we enjoyed in our youth have to be remade by someone else? Doesn't the younger, upcoming generation in Hollywood have any original ideas of their own? All I see is remake after remake after remake. I say they should leave our classic TV shows alone and come with something they can call their own!
@TrekToons So many remakes because it's still cheaper to use someone else's concept than to come up with one of your own. Hollywood has "Cheap" written all over it, and any idiot can keep costs down by cutting quality.
Thanks for posting this. I can see why it didn't get picked up. Compared to the 1966 version, this update seems less "big" and colorful. Plus the historical event chosen doesn't grab the imagination nearly as much as the sinking of the Titanic did.
Hey, I do think this is better than the original but that's a pretty low bar, it wasn't exactly "Maverick," Robert Colbert's first series. I wish every episode would feature another jarring change when the time travelers return, though, like that episode of "The Simpsons" where Homer's family all have long lizard tongues they stick out to take their food.
You have to build the same exact sets to scale and the same music and sounds of the 60's. Any thing else would fall way short.Need the famous chime noise when the transfers take place.The problem with the original was the predictability.The remake was hurried and misses the mark .
I would say that it's too bad that this never got picked up, but I'm glad it didn't. I would rather have the one season of Firefly than ten seasons of this. Still, good idea for a show.
Isn't it funny how the uninformed like to make statements like "They ripped off Sliders!" Watch something older than 10 years ago people. Everything has been done at least 4 times if you look back far enough.
This was CLEARLY a rip off from "Sliders" especially the "red light"! Plus making Tony a female scientist now, talk about no originality or creativity!!! That is the trouble with Hollywood they have no new thinking just re-hashing old movies or old series and putting their spin on them! Heck most of the people who post on here have more creativity than the overpaid think tanks of Hollywood!!!
I think they should have given it a chance. It looked like a pretty good start to the show. It makes since that they didn't have to much action that would have killed the mood of the main character.
Well, at least they got the config of the tunnel right this time. It's somewhat of a Mobius Coil design. There's a decent shot at pulling a torsion field with this one. You need that to bend gravity and via that, time. I particularly like the Dan Burich look-alike as the man in charge. I found that humorous. Almost as snarky as well.
I wished that Fox would had picked picked up this time tunnel I iused to watch this program with my children in 1966 to 1967 and it was a very good series and it was a veryy good tv series during that period of time
Opps, in this part, somebody on the production staff should have changed the motorcycle cop lights to blue on one side and green on the other, or both green. After all, in this reality, the meanings are opposite, aren't they? It would have really enhanced the whole ambiance.
Now that I've seen all 5 parts, I have to say that this seemed pretty promising. Ironic that the suits at Fox rejected this for Firefly and then promptly shot themselves in the foot managing that series. Just par for the course for Fox. I fondly remember the original series and have the DVDs, and this should have been given a chance. Really enjoyed this. Thanks for finding and posting.
HELP !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IM LOOKING FOR THE OLD VERSION OF TIME TUNEL ON HERE BUT CANT FIND ANY OR IF ANY ONE CAN PUT SOME ON HERE THAT WOULD BE COOL AS IV SEEN ALOT OF COMMENTS SAYING THE OLD VERSION WAS GOOD SO COME ON ALL YOU CLEAVER PEOPLE THAT NO HOW TO PUT STUFF ON YOUTUBE HELP US OUT ( PLEASE ) THANKS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
An excellent concept. The original Time Tunnel was doing good,and like 'The Invaders' it was cut. Time travel is not so far out as it may seem. We are being given subtle hints from our Hollywood mind control folks. This first would-be episode was not bad.
Thank goodness they didn't do the lame Irwin Allen bit. Practically every one of his series stranded its main characters somewhere — Lost in Space: stranded. Time Tunnel: stranded. Land of the Giants: stranded. It was all like Gilligan's Island. I got sick of that schtick, even as a kid. You knew their dilemma would never be resolved, because they didn't resolve TV shows back then. They just cancelled 'em.
At least this pilot episode had characters who could go HOME!
I hate this version it's just boring and un interesting it sucks!!! I love love love the old version because it's actually exciting!! And it has a great story!!
@swede85 Thank you heaps for uploading this movie I would like to get it on DVD or Blu-Ray if possible take care! Please let me know if you have any copies of this movie on DVD thank you.
@mamabear123454321 YOU ARE CORRECT JUST AWEFUL NOTHING LIKE THE 1967 TIME TUNNEL IT HAD GREAT ACTING AND SPECIAL EFFECTS SHOULD OF BEEN RENEWED FOR A SECOND SEASON THATS WHY ALLEN WENT TO DO MOVIES BECAUSE THESE ASSHOLE TV NEWORK JERKS KEPT ON CANCELING HIS TV SERIES
The reason it never made it to air was because of how much it was going to cost to make each episode. They threw a lot of money at the pilot and it wasnt viable. They spent the money on firefly instead which they cancelled anyway after one season
I also grew with Irwin Allen´s Time Tunnel but I think this version was much better.
The overall premise (an accident that changes the whole human history instead of just throw a couple of guys thru time) is much more interesting. And the sub plot about Douglas losing his family and the life he knows if he does his job right was very promising.
James Darren must be real proud of that one! In the original series, Doug Phillips was already amember of the team...Tony Newman was the newcomer... The original concept was far better!
I was about to say the same thing. Maybe if he had traveled in the time tunnel for real he could have prevented his death! Where is Melinda when he really need her? -:)
Would Irwin have approved? This was his personal fave. Now we are LIVING in the fantastic future he helped create. LONG LIVE IRWIN ALLEN. We miss you, Irwin.
Irwin wouldn't have wasted so much time getting to it.
One thing about IA, his movies and shows were always efficient and moved along quickly. This is 7 minutes in and we're doing nothing but unnecessary backstory.
Compared to the pilot of the real TT this is a yawnfest..
me gusta esta versión del tunel del tiempo pero que pena que el personaje de tonny newman lo tenga una mujer debido a que el personaje principal es un hombre pero tambien que pena que no lo hayan promocionado para la tele , o el cine
@BoilingPoint212F Actually, New Jersey merged with Pennsylvania in this version. Perhaps in this reality, the Penn family didn't sell the New Jersey Colony to England and William Franklin, Benjamin's illigitimate son, didn't become its Lord Governor. Sorry, I'm a huge fan of "alternate history" stories.
Thanks for posting this! I've heard rumors about this unaired pilot for a couple of years, but never got to see it. I remember the original 1966 series (it was fun), but this remake was a pretty good reworking of the original concept.
